Friday LinkFrogging – 3/4/11

 Good afternoon kids.  I have a confession to make.  I am on a drug. It's called Charlie Sheen. It's not available. If you try it once, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body. I probably took more than anybody could survive. ... I was bangin' …

Friendship & Metal Dreams

Bobby and I have been friends since high school (about 23 years).  He is the only person outside of family that I have known that long.  It was our love of Metal that initiated our friendship and today that friendship has evolved, changed, and matured in a host of ways.  We’ve played music together in …

Friday LinkFrogging – 1/7/11

Well boys and girls, its a new year, and we are back. The gang here at GonzoGeek took a little time off for the holidays (well, except for Matt).  Now we're recharged and ready to roll into the once (on-say).  Think that will catch on? Before we get to the links, we've got to introduce …

'80s metal band Dokken co-stars with a chicken in a new ad campaign for Norton Internet Security 2010. User options are discussed, with outcomes graphically illustrated. Maybe Norton will sponsor a return of Rock The Bayou??

The Greatest Music of the ’90s

Now that even the tail end of the decade is almost 10 years ago, I decided it was time to weigh in on this very important topic.  Important?, you ask. Why yes. Because at least one version of mainstream rock musical history goes like this: the Dinosaurs, Punk, 4 days of Power Pop, Hair Metal …
